Speaking of today's match the vote totals are consistent with MMX/Price and that's with the Canadians at school.

Are more people figuring out there are two matches a day?

Hopefully the people in the day come back for the night match. Cube/Sandal may struggle to break 50k, especially if the theory of joke characters being weaker in this format is true.

like roxas only got 32.5% on luigi in a non sff match. thats fodder level, so he's hardly out of Heavys reach.

First, there WAS SFF in the form of Sho and to a lesser degree Luigi himself.
Second, that's not fodder level.
Third, he's only had his own game since then.

Audiences. KH and Nintendo have a little overlap, not a lot, but more than most other Square series. I mean just look at KH's pattern relative to FF's.

Is Vivi in Dissidia? I ask because Vivi's the first major Square character we're going to get to see in action and I've been wondering about the effect that game's going to have on its characters.

Yes, as an icon.

Cecil's the first true Dissidia character we're going to see in action.

I'm not even that big of a SotC fan(despite my namesake based off a giant colossus boss fight), but seriously, Shadow may just be the worst video game character of all-time, and has fallen off half a dozen cliffs since the days of 45% on Mario.

Anecdote time! Back when Sonic Adventure 2 first came out, my 7 year old brother(who had bought the game for his birthday) couldn't WAIT to play as Shadow. Like, he would let me do the opening Robotnik level, and then immediately stole the controller from me to play as Shadow in the boss fight. I have NO idea what is about darker version of Sonic that enticed his mind, but he was hooked.

Today, I told him he was getting whooped on by a mystical dog thing from an obscure Zelda-clone.

"Thats because Shadow ****ing sucks" he replied.

That may be because Knuckles hasn't really had any matches that make him look really bad. In 2007, he let Rikku get too close, but Knuckles still won the match. In 2008, he did fall a fair bit short of SFF'd Zelda. But I don't think losing to a stronger character that was SFF'd sounds as humiliating as losing to a character is is actually not that strong.

Well, looks like Sonic gets off the hook, but Knuckles/Cecil is a day match. Watch out for Cecil.

Seriously, I think he might go 65-35 with LIGHTNING if Team Sonic is as bad as this match says.
